Zinc Phosphides as Outstanding Sodium-Ion Battery Anodes

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2020
To design a high-performance sodium-ion battery anode, binary zinc phosphides (ZnP2 and Zn3P2) were synthesized by a facile solid-state heat treatment process, and their Na storage characteristics were evaluated. The Na reactivity of ZnP2 was better than that of Zn3P2.

Towards More Sustainable Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Angewandte Chemie International Edition
Abstract Aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs) are considered as the promising candidates for large‐scale energy storage because of their high safety, low cost and environmental benignity. The large‐scale applications of AZIBs will inevitably result in a large amount of spent AZIBs, which not only induce the waste of resources, but also ...

Möbius Solvation Structure for Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Materials
AbstractZinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) have promising prospects in energy storage field, but the water molecules in aqueous electrolytes significantly compromise the stability of the anode and cathode interfaces and hinder the low‐temperature performance. Herein, water‐in‐oil type Möbius polarity topological solvation composed of oil, water, and amphiphilic

MnO2 superstructure cathode with boosted zinc ion intercalation for aqueous zinc ion batteries

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science
The simultaneous intercalation of protons and Zn$^{2+}$ ions in aqueous electrolytes presents a significant obstacle to the widespread adoption of aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) for large-scale use, a challenge that has yet to be overcome. To address this, we have developed a MnO$_2$/tetramethylammonium (TMA) superstructure with an enlarged ...

Improving Aqueous Zinc Ion Batteries with Alkali Metal Ions

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces
Aqueous zinc (Zn) ion batteries have received broad attention recently. However, their practical application is limited by severe Zn dendrite growth and the hydrogen evolution reaction. In this study, three alkali metal ions (Li+, Na+, and K+) are added in ZnSO4 electrolytes, which are subjected to electrochemical measurements and molecular dynamics ...
